With the World Cup drawing closer, it’s time to take a look at the people who defined the sport with our Ultimate Footballer contest. We’ll be seeing which footballers we think are the best, pitting the greats against each other to see who Buzzjack crowns as our Ultimate Footballer!

It’s Semi-Final time now – we received 78 nominations in total, which have been randomly allocated into 3 groups of 26 (note ‘randomly’ – if all the best have been stuffed into the same semi it’s not my fault). Ten players from each group will advance through to the Final. It’s now time for you to vote – you can vote for up to 15 players, but you MUST vote for at least 5. Please make your order obvious (or at least obvious enough for us to know what you’re on about).

Semi 3 was certainly much closer in terms of points, a massive scrap for the Top 10 resulting in Andy Cole missing out by a single point. The current President of Liberia, George Weah, is only a couple of points behind as well, and Spanish superstar Raul is only a point behind him. We then get the full range of points, all the way down to our single null-pointer, which is another Irish choice to the surprise of absolutely nobody.
